i have never heard of a law against high-beaming someone. Do you recall what section of the hta says this, or where you heard this? I high-beam on a very regular basis, cant imagine driving in ontario without it!

totally illegal dude.

never said anything about high beaming. i'm saying the left signal should be a rule here. helps people indicate that they are passing and can help enforce the left lane hoggers.

also, in portugal atleast, when passing on a highway in the left lane you need to have your left signal on while your in that lane while your passing.

I mentioned high beams because people Europe use them interchangeably.

And just because you see people using it (like you have in Portugal) doesn't mean it's ALLOWED like you think. I'm going to bet it's illegal just like it is in other countries in Europe.

You will get an improper use of lights ticket... It's in the HTA somewhere. You can take my word for it or look it up on your own.

I do that too, the way I see it, a quick flash or 2 to get the slow driver to move over is safer than attempting to pass on the right. But most people don't seem to understand what getting flashed means.

And I really wish there was a cop around when I was stuck behind some idiotic woman driving with her highbeams on constantly on a country highway. I couldn't pass because there was a constant stream of cars on the oncoming lane, and those people all flashed her, but ended up blinding me too. She just couldn't get it into her thick head to look at her damn gauges and see that her highbeam indicator was on. When I could finally pass her I got as far away from her as possible, and I could still see the highbeams in my rearview until she turned somewhere.

i average 140km/h on the highway, never been pulled over before, even when being radar ed. I tend to drive in middle until passing that's when i go left and then back to middle

...thats a lie. unless uve only had ur license for a month and are really lucky..its doesnt happen.

but anyhow, only thing that ticks me off is im going a little quicker and someone cuts infront and i have to move my foot to the brakes just incase. But otherwise, if someone is going 80 or 90, which i see in a blue moon. i have no problem finding a way around them, i turn it into a kind of video game

To add to this,. TRUCKS ARE THE WORST MIDDLE LANE BLOCKTARDS. They make it impossible to merge off the hwy as you get a retard corolla doing 90 in front of you in the passing lane, truck doing 91 in the middle lane and you are stuck trying to make a collector exit and can't pass, you have to brake moronically.

next time brake test the bitch, she will try to high beam you and switch them off by accident.

Right and you actually sat behind a wheel of a truck and understand what goes on.

Truck drivers are most courtious motorists on the road, period.

No matter what happens with a 4 wheeler it's always a truckers fault, well according to the public anyways. Truck drivers are courtious because they don't want to be involved in a accident. Especially since some States in the USA have a law that if you are involved in a motor vehicle accident and found at fault you loose your truck driving licence for 6 years.

Having said that, there are those drivers who push the law to the limit.

you haven't been on the 401 lately in rush-hour have you? You wouldn't be making that comment if you were.
